Honestly, I think all of his songs are deep - you just have to get past his comical way of seeing things in his lyrics to find that there is something there, something deeper than you realize...But, it's there.

This has always been a favorite for me! Exceptional guitar work, impressive lyrics, oddly uncharacteristic of his more humorous songs. I had a chance to see him with my late sister in Santa Clara, in 1988, in a small venue. We were in the first seated row and it was more like hanging out and partying with him! He started off with this tune, playing acoustic slide for the first verse, pausing as the lights went down, came back with his trademark pale blue strat and the full band. It was a great show and a great memory for me, spending quality time with my, now passed, little sister.

Don’t get me wrong, Les Pauls are amazing guitars with a signature sound (especially when it comes to distorted leads) and yes, Joe Walsh’s sound is all about that guitar, but don’t say it doesn’t have its place in the pantheon of culturally influential instruments.

FOREVER ‘THE CONFESSOR. NEVER FORGET. FOREVER MINE. REMEMBER ALWAYS

Joe was the First Known artist I saw at 19yrs. alive.....Till this day, I'm now 66! Still has the mojo he started with.... I've seen 19 shows, without the Eagles. Eagles went sky high when Joe hooked up with them. The Confessor a work of genius!

Ya, I was born in '57 and when you hear insane music coming out every single week--well, it changes you forever. Creativity on so many levels. Everyone exploring... Now, there are songs written by committee and algorithm, drum machines and auto tune...and very few musician/singer/songwriters who's songs will be played 40 yrs later...>sigh

Newer guys could take a lesson from guys like Joe. He's still keeping it real.

Joe Walsh has written many great songs, but this and "In the City" are so powerful. "City" is stark and lonely, showing the brutality that comes with civilization. But "The Confessor" reaches in and grabs your soul and forces the confession of your sin right out of you.

The man, the legend, Joe freaking Walsh.

Another work of art by the Blonde God of Rock!!!!

One of the best rock songs ever written. Instrumentally it had a BIG sound with the guitar riffs and the sound of the drums. Just a bad ass piece of work. Joe you did it. You own it. One of the best to do it and this song was before it's time.

OK this is why the Eagles were just as strong apart as they were together. Talent Talent Talent.!!!

One of my favorite songs of all times! ..If you look at your reflection in the bottom of a well...

The Confessor deserves the same number of plays Stairway to Heaven gets.

The Confessor always felt like a well written rock overture.. love it. And the ending sequence to this video is exactly how to portray the climax. Joe said Stevie Nicks was with him for the entire process of this album and it definitely shows. Awesome!!

Set aside the lyrics and images, this is one of the best rock songs ever written... add the lyrics and images and it's gold made in heaven. 'nuff said....

I used to love hearing this song when I was fried. Try it, you might like it!!!!!!!!!!!!! Teen years were so damn wonderful, loved those years in the 70's and 80's!

Joe Walsh. Best combo of talent and stage presence of all the guitarists out there.

I was a kid when this came out and always thought it was cool and was so different from most of the radio hits at the time but Joe Walsh always does his own thing and I think its great !...And I love some of the 3 chord tunes that came out back then but this song was always special and different in a good way cause who else could do it?

Joe unleashes one serious guitar riff in The Confessor but what do you expect from Joe Walsh.

Deep, powerfull, psychedelic visually, lyrically, and in tune. Does it get any better?

By far Joe's BEST hard rock tune.

When he talks about the rocky bottom I think he is talking about hitting the bottom you have to hit when you have an addiction. It is different for everyone, but only then--when you are stripped naked--will you be willing to do what ever is necessary. "Give it up!" You can't do a damn thing about all the crap and "what if's" in your past... (He must almost have 20 yrs sober now.)

My ears were introduced to this in a striking way. No matter how many times I requested it on the radio I only heard it on rare occasions. Every three months or so I would take acid and tripball day and about 3 am it would play.Slowly I recognized the mighty song I didn't know the name of and it forever left its spooky and powerful impact on me. Hard to recognize at first then all was beautiful!

This is the BEST Joe ever wrote. I wish it was 1985 again.

Joe walsh soul serching

Don't get much better than this. PERIOD.

Man I love this song...been ages since I listened to it. Watched the Guitar Center with Joe Walsh on axslive the other night and it made me realize it's been too long since listening to his stuff. Back to the Confessor...loved this song so much at the time that I made sure I didn't miss the tour.
